Abstract The achievements of IFOS NIHL Standing Committee have been reported. It would be desirable to standardize the criteria for the evaluation of NIHL. The WHO and IFOS should consider updating the guideline. The present situation of the conservation of hearing at the noise-producing workshops and compensation for noise-induced hearing loss ...

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1966
To the Editor:— Your editorial on "Noise-Induced Hearing Loss" ( 195 :1054, 1966) brought up the thought that conditions which take many years to produce could be very difficult to verify experimentally. I find that anyone in a vocation entailing noise usually has a hearing loss after working a number of years in it. Farmers (tractors without mufflers)

Pediatrics, 2002
To the Editor — Niskar et al’s 1 estimate of 5.2 million US children with noise-induced threshold shifts (NITS) was unexpectedly high for a condition known primarily as an occupational hazard. It was particularly surprising that 1 out of 12 of the youngest children, aged 6–11, already had NITS. Some other study findings were also remarkable.

Noise-Induced Hearing Loss and Snowmobiles
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1974The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of high-speed snowmobile engine noise on the auditory mechanism. Pre-exposure hearing tests were obtained on 21 racing drivers (42 ears) and five snowmobile mechanics (ten ears). Sound-pressure-level measurements were obtained on representative samples of high-speed engines and also on spectator ...

INTRODUCTION HEARING loss resulting from exposure to noise has received considerable attention in otologic literature. 1 In recent years, this type of hearing loss has assumed increased importance, partly because of its position in theories of audition but principally, perhaps, because industry is coming to realize its occurrence in those members of ...

Preventing noise-induced hearing loss
Nursing Clinics of North America, 2002Noise-induced hearing loss is a significant, irreversible impairment, but one that is preventable. The numbers of persons, including children, exposed to high noise is increasing, necessitating the use of hearing protection if the noise cannot be reduced to a safe level.

Age and noise-induced hearing loss
Scandinavian Audiology, 2001The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of noise, age and confounders in noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). Information about work exposure, the use of hearing protective devices, audiogram, environmental and biological factors was collected from 406 paper mill workers exposed to noise levels of 91-94 dB(A), 124 forest workers exposed to ...

Prevention of Noise-Induced Hearing Loss
Preventive Medicine, 1994Sounds of sufficient loudness and duration will damage the human ear resulting in temporary or permanent hearing loss, often accompanied by tinnitus. Irreversible inner ear damage from repeated sound overstimulation can occur at any age, including early infancy, resulting in permanent noise-induced hearing loss.
